TRAILER: Ryan Gosling's "Drive"

Plot: A Hollywood stunt performer who moonlights as a wheelman discovers that a contract has been put on him after a heist gone wrong.Cast: Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan (Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps), Bryan Cranston ("Breaking Bad"), Christina Hendricks ("Mad Men"), Ron Perlman ("Sons of Anarchy" and Hellboy), Oscar Isaac (Sucker Punch), Albert BrooksVerdict: I love the new cool-and-debonair character kick Gosling is on lately. It suits him well. But this just seems like a high-brow Transporter and I don't get the hype. Some bloggers are saying that this is Gosling at his sexiest, but I just find it hard to be attracted to a guy who goes from making out with a girl one minute to violently assaulting a guy the next. I have no doubt that it'll all look cool. I just haven't decided if I'll be basking in all that coolness in theaters or from the comfort of my own couch.
